A User on the most authenticated online Android tweaks forum has explained the new method to Root both Verizon & AT&T variants of Samsung Galaxy S4 running Android 4.3 Jelly Bean update build VRUEMJ7, to be known as an OTA update released in November 2013. This update released to fix some bugs found in the Android 4.3 update and also to address the stability issues that have been complained by many users who were using the Verizon and AT&T variants of the Galaxy S4.

The main features of this VRUEMK2 update includes better improved roaming service for both companies in Canada and Mexico, Fixing the data connection issues through proxy servers, a new enhanced built in email connectivity issue and thus support for the non- Samsung charger which seem to be a serious issue currently.

This resulted in some geeks sit together and produced yet another way to Root Verizon and AT&T Samsung Galaxy S4 with the VRUEMK2 update for the Android 4.3 Jelly Bean.
